Carroll County conference board declines proposed contract with Hopsons & Hubert PC
Summary
The conference board considered a contract with Hopsons and Hubert PC for legal/human-resources support but put the contract on the floor and subsequently voted it down in roll call, with named supervisors and city representatives recording 'No' votes.
The Carroll County conference board discussed a proposed contract with 'Hopsons and Hubert and PC' for legal and human‑resources services but ultimately voted the proposal down.
Supervisors discussed whether the assessor’s office should use the county’s existing human‑resources counsel and noted that the county had already engaged an HR person; one supervisor suggested bringing the contract forward for a vote and then opposing it to allow the county supervisors to record a position. The motion to approve the contract was moved and seconded and a roll‑call vote followed.
During roll call the recorded votes were 'No' from Lanesborough, the City of Willie (as recorded), and the named district supervisors (Scott Johnson, Mike Anderson, Gene Miners, Mark McCray), producing a failed motion. The board did not adopt the contract and moved on to new business.
The meeting record does not specify the proposed contract's term, cost, or the precise scope of services; the board discussed relying on the county’s current handbook and counsel instead.
